In Southeast Asia’s fast-growing and weather-challenged construction landscape, waterproofing is a critical factor in project longevity, site efficiency and compliance with evolving sustainability standards.
Rapid curing in any weather
Covestro’s polyurea technology Desmodur® E, offers an ultra-fast curing profile. It sets within seconds—even under high humidity or colder conditions—reducing project downtime. It also provides anti-rooting properties, outstanding water and weather resistance, and reliable protection for steel-reinforced concrete.
Low-VOC, indoor-safe formulation
Covestro’s waterborne polyurethane dispersion, Bayhydrol® UH, is a water-based, low-emission formulation suitable for indoor applications. It supports compliance with modern green building standards. It offers excellent resistance to dirt pick-up, UV rays, and water, with high film build-up and durability.
Durability for demanding environments
For industrial floors, car parks and other high-wear areas, Covestro offers a two-component polyurethane system combining Desmophen® NH and Desmodur® E. This system provides mechanical strength and chemical resistance for long-term performance, can be applied at low temperatures with high solids, cures quickly, and offers durability.
Easy, single-component application
Covestro’s moisture-curing one-component polyurethane system, using Desmodur® E and Desmoseal® M, cures effectively in humid environments. This ensures consistent results and simplifies application on-site. It offers anti-rooting properties, excellent water and ponding resistance, outstanding weather resistance, and maintains film integrity even after prolonged exposure.
